We've been doing a wee 15 minute fun thing once a week after handover, we've done a halloween music quiz, a pub quiz, an emoji quiz, and today we did a wee craft and made little post it note books 😎
It's great fun 😝
“Go for it! You could save someone’s life, with little impact on yourself.”
Meet Craig from #Scotland – after nearly 9 years on the stem cell register, he recently got the call to donate, and he didn’t hesitate to say yes!
Sign up as a stem cell donor today. 🦸♂️
“There was never any question if I was going to donate or not – I knew I was going to go ahead.”
Catherine recently made an incredible decision: to give someone a second chance at life by donating her stem cells. ❤️
Are you signed up to the stem cell register too?
Sickle Cell doesn't define Calvin and others like him, because they can still live to the fullest - thanks to your blood donations. ♥️ But our work is never done, so save a life tomorrow by booking your blood donation today. 🩸
Earlier this year, Paul from #Fife donated his stem cells to help save a complete stranger. 💪
He shares: “To anyone thinking about registering, just got for it - it’s really not as scary as it sounds. If you have the ability to register and are healthy – just do it.”
97,622 people in Scotland have given blood this year - and in doing so you've changed lives. Patients can't thank you themselves, so we're doing it for them. Thank you. You're amazing. Have a wonderful Hogmanay, and we look forward to seeing you in 2025.
This Christmas @BBCCasualty is spotlighting the incredible impact of blood donors in a special episode airing tomorrow. Watch out for #Edinburgh Donor Centre and the powerful story of Rachel, whose family donated at #Aberdeen Donor Centre on Wednesday.

@givebloodscot Always a pleasure never a chore, i may have had a kit kat and some Nairns oat biscuits, and I treated myself to a nice coffee on the walk home 😬🤓
📢 Help 8-year-old Dylan find his match!
In July, Dylan's world changed in an instant. He was diagnosed with very severe aplastic anaemia, a life-limiting blood disorder. Now, Dylan urgently needs a stem cell #transplant. But there’s no perfect match for him on the register. ❤️🩹
“If through telling my story just one person puts themselves forward; that’s the impact I want,” shares Lewis.
⚽️ Meet Lewis from #Liverpool - an assistant referee with the @EFL, volunteer club secretary of Bootle Football Club in Merseyside & stem cell donor! @BluesVCancer
Adeline & Josie are sisters from #Scotland who share the same genetic condition. Their story has inspired 100s of people to register as #stemcell donors so far.🌈
But sadly, Josie is still searching for her hero. 🦸♀️ Share this post to encourage others to register with #DKMS!
🎥 Watch the heartwarming moment when 8-year-old Jacob meets his lifesaver, Lorna!
At just 19 months old, Jacob was diagnosed with a rare, life-threatening condition. His only hope was a #stemcell donation via an anonymous #DKMS donor.
This is their story. ❤️
🩸 As #SickleCellAwarenessMonth comes to an end we want to encourage you to donate blood!
Remember: you can be the perfect match for someone who requires regular blood transfusions to treat a condition like Sickle Cell
